Organize your iOS gallery with Flic

If you have been looking for an easier way to organize your iPhone’s photos, a new app may have the solution for you. Flic uses an extra simple method to help you sort through your shots. You just need to swipe left to throw it into the trash or swipe right to keep (yes, it is kind of like Tinder). It will show you how much space you are clearing with the photos you reject and it will only delete the photos once you get to the end of each month’s photos.

Google rumoured to take on WhatsApp with new messaging app

Google is looking to enter the heavily populated messaging app arena with a new product, if reports are to be believed. However, don’t confuse it for Hangouts, though. Google is reportedly creating it to be a standalone product that won’t require a Google login. It’ll be free and will launch in India first before it makes its way to “other emerging markets” next year. If it picks up over there, we won’t be surprised that it’ll make its way to this side of the world.
